Evann Guessand is Aston Villa's Bronze Engine, arriving at the club following a high-profile €30.00M transfer from Nice in August 2025. While currently building his body of work in the Premier League, the Ivorian international is quickly establishing himself as a high-workrate presence capable of disrupting play and driving the team forward.

Across 13 appearances and 597 minutes of action, Guessand has already secured the SILVER TRAY badge, a testament to his regular contributions in the final third. His physical profile is defined by a Defense score of 69, unusual for his position but vital for a modern Engine who leads the press from the front.
